The film was banned in Russia shortly after receiving the screening license.
The scene at the Reichstag in 1945 when the Soviet flag is planted in the roof is based on a real incident. The soldier helping the one holding the flag was indeed wearing several watches, but the captain taking the photo failed to see it. As newspapers around the world published the photo, Stalin became angry at the implications of looting by the Red Army, so the scene was staged and photographed again. Today, both versions exist, but there is no clear evidence of who the soldier holding the flag is.
The novel Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith, was directly inspired by the real life serial killer Andrei Chikatilo.
The first cut of the film was around five and a half hours long.
Vincent Cassel replaced Philip Seymour Hoffman in the part of Major Kuzmin.
"Leo Demidov: If you are so innocent, why do you run? Hmm? Anatoly Tarasovich Brodsky: That's a very good question. I run because you were following me. When you are followed, you are arrested. And when you are arrested, you are already guilty. So you tell me, why did I run?"
"Raisa Demidov: Leo, do you know what people get around here when they demand the truth? Do you? They get terror. Leo Demidov: Raisa, we are already dead."
